Some of the other guests continued to play games, while others continued to watch Li You make a floor cage.

Time slowly reached 4:30 in the afternoon, and the floor cage was basically completed, leaving only the final finishing steps.

Closing is very important, and the technical requirements are also very high. Li You couldn't do it well, so he had to make do with it.

Finally, the closing is completed. The entire floor cage is also completed.

Although it is still relatively rough, Li You is already very satisfied. At least it looks much better than the previous cage.

Xia Xiaoyue, Mu Qingye, and Ling Xiaoru were also very happy, and they all had a sense of participation.

"It looks much better than the last one." All three people also gave this evaluation.

The guests who were still present were equally happy and commented individually.

"It looks pretty good. Although it's not as exquisite and beautiful as the old bamboo craftsman's, it's pretty good to be able to weave it to this level."

"It feels much better than the last one. The progress is obvious."

"Boss, this skill is still good. It exceeds 90% of young people."

"Be bold, it's more than 99%. I guess many young people have never seen this craft, let alone know how to do it."

"Speaking of this, it's a pity again."

"..."

The guests all felt regretful again. Li also regretted a few more words, and then placed the floor cage next to the wall.

It's already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and customers will be ordering food soon, so I won't go to the canyon to change the cage.

I'll change it tomorrow.

Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye also decided to stay here for one more night and go back to school tomorrow.

Li You welcomes this very much.

The two people also said that they would treat Li You and Ling Xiaoru to dinner tonight.

Li You invited them to dinner last night. They will invite them back tonight.

Reciprocity is a courtesy.

Li You has no objection to this. Both Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye have quite good family conditions.

……

Six o'clock in the afternoon.

Customers began to order food, and Li You walked into the kitchen and started busy.

Xia Xiaoyue, Mu Qingye, and Ling Xiaoru went upstairs. At the same time, they had already ordered the dishes for the evening. Five pounds of spicy crayfish, nine-turn large intestine, Longjing shrimp, fish head with chopped pepper, stir-fried bitter melon, and clear

One portion each of fried shredded potatoes.

Li You will use his free time to cook for the guests.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the last wave of customers finished eating and left. The dishes ordered by Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye were also ready.

There is also the leftover mushroom soup from lunch.

Closed for dinner.

You can drink some wine in the evening. Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye also drank half a bowl each. They were a little dizzy, but it’s not a big problem.

……

The next day.

Morning.

After having breakfast and finishing up the work in the kitchen, Li You planned to go to the canyon to change the floor cage.

Xia Xiaoyue, Mu Qingye, and Ling Xiaoru are also going together.

They all got up early today.

"Boss, how about we catch some crabs for lunch?" Ling Xiaoru asked.

When I ate crabs last time, I had already said that I would go to the canyon to catch some crabs and eat them again.

Let's just stop by today. Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye are also here, so we can let them have a try too.

Li You nodded, "Of course."

Ling Xiaoru is very happy.

Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye were a little confused, and both said: "Are they those crabs in the canyon shoals? Aren't those crabs with hard shells and less meat? Can they be delicious?"

Ling Xiaoru said: "Xiaoyue, Qingye, you don't know something. As long as the crabs are cooked, they are also very delicious and fragrant. The boss, me, and Teacher Chu, we caught a lot of them last time

Come back and eat.”

After hearing this, Xia Xiaoyue and Mu Qingye became very interested and looked forward to it. They both said, "Then let's go grab some and bring them back, so we can have some at noon."

Ling Xiaoru nodded, "Let's go, let's go. Boss, let's go. Oh, by the way, I'll carry a bucket so I can put the crabs in later."

After finishing speaking, he walked to a place where buckets were placed outside the store door and held a bucket in his hand.

Li You smiled slightly, took the ground cage he had made yesterday in his hand, and said, "Let's go."

"Okay!"

The four people set off and soon arrived at the place where the ground cage was placed in the canyon.

"Let's take a look at the harvest in the old cage first. I'll pick it up." Ling Xiaoru said.

After finishing speaking, walk over and pick up the old floor cage.

Looking inside, the harvest is pretty good.

There are more than a dozen river groupers, two carp and crucian carp each, and a few crabs. In addition, there are many small fish and shrimps.

No need for small fish, shrimps and crabs.

Put the creek grouper, crucian carp, carp, and the remaining four edible crabs into the bucket.

Mu Qingye looked at the creek grouper in the bucket and said, "Isn't this the largest creek grouper that can only grow so big?"

Li You said: "Almost. It can grow a little longer, but not much."

Mu Qingye nodded and said: "It seems that I have never seen this kind of fish in the market. I have never eaten it. I don't know if it tastes good?"

Li Youdao: "This kind of fish has very high requirements for the water environment and is only found in a few places with good water conditions. It is indeed almost not sold on the market. As for the taste, it is delicious. It is a high-quality ingredient among fish.

”

"Really?" Mu Qingye said, "I've never eaten it."

After hearing this, Li You asked Xia Xiaoyue and Ling Xiaoru, "Have you eaten it?"

Xia Xiaoyue said: "I should have eaten it when I was a child, but I have no memory of it. I must have never eaten it when I grew up."

Ling Xiaoru said: "I should have eaten it when I was a child. But I have no impression of it either."

"That's it!" Li You said, "In addition to crabs, let's also eat some fish like this at noon today."

The three of them were quite surprised after hearing this, this is really great!

But, are just a dozen items too few? I feel like I can’t get enough of them!

Li You said: "It's not just these. I basically raised all the creek groupers I received from the cage before. Now there are quite a few."

These words surprised Xia Xiaoyue, Mu Qingye, and Ling Xiaoru once again.

This is great! I had creek grouper for lunch today.

Very exciting!

Next, Li You put bait in the new ground cage. Then he placed the new ground cage where the old ground cage was placed.

Starting today, it’s time to work on the new floor cage.

"What about this old one? Have you thrown it away?" Ling Xiaoru said, pointing to the old floor cage.

Li You nodded, "Throw it away, don't want it anymore."

In fact, the old floor cage can be placed in another place and used for a while. But Li You does not intend to do this.

A floor cage is enough.

This is also the reason why Li You has never made more floor cages.

He only plans to use a floor cage.

Now let the old floor cage be put here temporarily, take it with you when you leave later, and then find a place to throw it away halfway.

Next we started catching crabs.

You don’t need to catch too many this time, just forty or fifty, which is enough for lunch.

Li You took off his shoes and socks and got into the water.

Ling Xiaoru, Xia Xiaoyue, and Mu Qingye also followed closely behind.
